Re: SWAC Championship attendance
The attendance for the Pac-12 title game was 45,618 in Santa Clara (and the pics show that was a lot less). Yikes

Re: SWAC Championship attendance
Going to be interesting on what they do to grow it bigger. But for sure Houston and Harris County is fully supporting the SWAC being here. Might as well move Duer's sorry arse to H-town.lol.

It was like Alcorn brought the entire reservation. Good crowd for sure. You knew SU would show up but Alcorn represented very well.

Re: SWAC Championship attendance
I think he is saying it has potential. Houston is much bigger than Charlotte and traffic was all over the place this weekend. Folks were definitely in the city and the locals were out big time. It may never Seem like or feel like the CIAA because Houston has so many spots and areas to hang for the old, young, hood, country, whatever you want to do and more spread out than Charlotte. Plus nobody has the number of restaurants per capita than Htown.

Re: SWAC Championship attendance
I went to CIAA 2002 and it was pretty live, I don't even think it was in Charlotte then. I'm not saying it will ever be as large but the SWAC championship has the potential to be up there with the CIAA tourney as a big event just like it. It's very hard to create a buzz in Houston but the SWAC championship game is on to something with this. Houston is 5 times bigger than Charlotte but the SCG had the city buzzing.

Re: SWAC Championship attendance
Yall can go on and on about the clubs, restaurants and everything that Houston has to offer, but 2 years in, and there isn't much difference in attendance than the scg birth in Bham . (Although the expenses have no doubt gone up)
There is a ceiling that this game has. Thats not a knock against Houston. Some of us tried to get folks to see that Bham wasnt the problem with the attendance.
38K was good attendance

Re: SWAC Championship attendance
I think it depends on the teams, the year PV went it was awful because the AAMU folks were basically home and barely came to the game. That night we had 38 degree weather with a driving rain and the plane tickets were expensive to get there. I didn't enjoy the game in BHam, but that's just me I guess :read:
